No. But debarchiver has. That's the program I'm talking about and which
makes use of apt-ftparchive. The problem is, that I receive the
mentioned error messages when it should rerun apt-ftparchive. And it is
IMO not a bug in debarchiver, because it was working a week ago and
there was no update of the application itself. The bug must be in
another package. I tried to downgrade gzip and also apt-utils/apt. But
both do not solve the problem. I am still examining, why it is
complaining about a non-existent gzip (error 100), because gzip exists.
Maybe it's a temporary problem caused by the latest libstdc++ allocator
change. I don't know. My hope was, that a more skilled (wo)man could
figure that out.

Yes. But that is something, which needs to be written. debarchiver
exists and works. Or better: it normally works.
